There are “no pretenses” at this “traditional” Japanese noodle shop in the East Village, just the “charming simplicity” of “delicious” ramen featuring “rich”, “slurp-worthy” broth, plus gyoza “just like in Tokyo”; its “tiny”, “basic” space is “perpetually packed”, but “fast” servers keep things on track.
